[applause] >> simon? welcome back, by the way. >> thank you. i'm simon johnson. thank you for inviting me and organizing another great conference. what can cause the next financial crisis? i have three things to say. first of all, i don't know. [laughter] and you don't know, and nobody knows. i worked on financial crisis for twenty five years, i was 2007 through over 2008 the chief economist of the international monetary fund, just down the street. i attended a lot of very interesting meetings during that time period with top officials and private sector people. poem who know as much as can be known about the world's economy and the world's financial system, they collectively and individually had no idea what was happening and what was going to happen in september 2008. the second thing i would say is look around the world. the european situation you heard of a nice summary just now, i'm much less saying about the political risk and the economic risk. i think ultimately italy will have to restructure the sovereign debt as 2 trillion euro in the outstanding debt.

>> well, the book was an idea that simon & schuster wanted me to write an auto bbiography for the last 20 years. i always thought there wasn't enough of a story. i didn't have time because i was doing two, three movies a year. but i think after the governorship, you know, i started thinking about it again. and just one of the most incredible immigrant stories. it's extraordinary when you think about coming over here with absolutely no money and making it through, climbing the ladder in the body-building sport and becoming the best and winning 13 championships. then going into movies when everyone thought it would never happen, a leading man in movies with an accent, with a name like that. and not really having any acting background and climb up to be the highest paid actor in the history of motion pictures. and then all of a sudden, there's a recall election in california. and to jump in there and become the governor of the greatest state in the union. so clearly, it's an interesting story. >> it certainly is. you write about how the day after you left the governorship, maria confronte

the boldest and most daring of velazquez' paintings is explored for us by professor simon schama of harvard university. las meninas is, in the most literal sense, a challenging painting. coming on it, we are challenged by no less than six pairs of eyes trained intently on us. the effect is distinctly unsettling, as though we'd blundered into the royal domain where we had no business being. but one pair of eyes, one pair of hands, those of the artist, ensure that once we've strayed into velazquez' magic box, we can't casually take our leave and move to whatever else is in the next gallery. pinned to the spot by the most extraordinary visual conundrum ever painted, our first reaction is probably to find out what exactly is going on here. the most incurious explanation, but one we can surely start with, is velazquez has offered us an informal glimpse into his working day producing one of the many portraits he executed of the royal princesses designed to advertise their desirability in one of the marriages on which dynastic politics so crucially turned. royal inbreeding had its problems, especi
